Are you blushing yet?

Here's a novel idea for date night: MoSex, which stays open until 10pm on weeknights and 11pm on weekends. (Those under 18 are not admitted.) Its curators, who are well-versed in the art and history of the sensual arts, lead guided tours. Now, don’t blush, that’s just an anti-onanism device... OK, you can blush. It’ll be pretty hard not to when you see vintage Victorian-era sexual aides saddled up next to modern items of S&M torture. We visited when an exhibit detailing the “live” lovemaking of wild animals caught on tape was all the rage. A counterpart showing the decade’s best celebrity-driven selfie vids proved that humans often have even less shame when it comes to showing off (tsk-tsk-tsk Colin Farrell and Tonya Harding!). Can’t handle all of that explicitness? Make a break for the R-rated ground floor gift shop stocked with unique items you never thought you’d find in a museum.
